big country car

Ten o'clock in the morning, meeting room.

"I have already applied to the leaders of the city. We cannot be the foundry of Volkswagen. We also need to have our own products. Therefore, after the production of our Phoenix sedan is completely discontinued, our production line will be transformed into a new one. For the production line of the Phoenix car, we need our own products and our national brand, and the superiors also value it, so they decided to give us more funds and approved that we can use 250 million yuan to build new cars."

After Wang Jianguo finished speaking, he looked at Qin Shaoyou: "Qin Gong, what do you think, tell me!"

Yesterday, Qin Shaoyou said that he should not imitate others, but should design independently, so Wang Jianguo agreed and applied for an additional 50 yuan. He has tried his best.

However, for Qin Shaoyou, this amount of money is simply a drop in the bucket.If you want to use this little money to get the car out, you can only take a shortcut.

It's like the design drawings that Qin Shaoyou drew overnight.If Qin Shaoyou was asked to design from scratch, it would take several months and the blessing of inspiration. However, it would be different to directly draw mature design drawings, which greatly shortened the time.

It's just that Qin Shaoyou keeps saying that he doesn't want to copy the cottage. Isn't this a slap in the face?

Of course not.

Among his three cars, the Honda CRV that was first put on the market was five years later. Now, these design drawings are definitely his originals!

Moreover, this is just a design drawing, and the specific design still requires a lot of energy, ranging from the layout of the engine compartment to the tightening torque of each screw, they all need to be calculated. In fact, they are equivalent to frontal research and development. of.

"I'm just an ordinary worker. I got into the technical department by chance. This kind of new car development project requires real experts to sit in on it. Let's listen to the opinions of other leaders." Qin Shaoyou began to be humble.

"Shaoyou, just say what you want. Although you are not very old, you have repeatedly created miracles, especially the 1.6t engine, which was developed by you. There is no other person present except you. If we can do it, we don’t care about our age, we only care about our personal ability." Liu Shengli said from the side.

Qin Shaoyou's biggest problem is that his qualifications are too low. It is less than a year now. It has never happened before that Qin Shaoyou can come to participate in the factory affairs meeting. If Qin Shaoyou is to take the lead in research and development, let alone domestic In the world, I have never seen such a young car designer!

Qin Shaoyou was modest, and Liu Shengli gave him a hand, so that no one else could say anything.

"Yes, Qin Gong, just express your own opinion. If you want to talk about copycats, we guys are familiar with it. However, it's the first time to talk about building a new car. In our factory, we just need newborn calves who are not afraid of tigers. Young man!" Li Ming, Qin Shaoyou's immediate boss, also spoke.

"Well, I was at home last night, thinking about it all night, and drew three sketches." Qin Shaoyou said: "Now, first of all, please take a look at the leaders."

As Qin Shaoyou talked, he took out his design drawing.

"Qin Gong, you are not frank. You worked hard last night and you became panda eyes. At our factory meeting, you were still modest!" Wang Jianguo joked as he took over the design drawings.

After seeing the above sketch clearly, Wang Jianguo immediately felt emotional: "This drawing is so realistic, it is very vivid at first glance, Qin Gong, you are simply an all-rounder. Wait, what kind of car is this? The proportions are wrong, right? ?”

After Wang Jianguo read the first picture, he gave the sketch to the person next to him, and then looked at the second picture. Why is it still like this?

Zhao Guodong took over the sketch in Wang Jianguo's hand, and after reading it, he was also puzzled: "Yes, this car is too tall, and it doesn't even have a butt!"

Can you call a car without a butt?This is the first sense of many people. Therefore, when the hatchback Xiali entered the country, it could not meet the domestic aesthetics. After adding an ugly butt, the sales were booming.

"It's called suv." Qin Shaoyou said: "Its full name is sport utility vehicle, that is, a sports utility vehicle. It can also be called a suburban utility vehicle, that is, a suburban utility vehicle. Its design is different from that of a sedan. It’s a brand new product with big tires and a head-turning ride.”

"212?" Zhao Guodong asked while handing the design drawing to Li Ming.

"No, it is different from 212. 212 has a large beam and can be used on complex and rough roads. It is an orv off-road vehicle, that is, an off-road vehicle that can leave paved roads. Our car can occasionally be used in the wild, but, Most of the scenes are still on paved roads."

Although Qin Shaoyou is very young, what he speaks now is all the most advanced professional vocabulary. The people present have been engaged in cars for half their lives, and I am afraid that they have not heard all these things.

"If you give an example, it is similar to the Cherokee produced by the Capital Automobile Plant."

"You mentioned the Cherokee earlier, so everyone will understand? However, the sales of the Cherokee don't seem to be very good!" Li Ming said, "It is said that they can't sell [-] units a year, and production is still discontinued in many cases. Is there a market for this car? Can it make money?"

To say that the first one in China to engage in joint ventures with foreign countries is not FAW, nor the S City Automobile Factory, but the Capital Automobile Factory!The 212 jeeps they produced were long outdated, so in the 80s, after the Capital Automobile Factory visited Detroit, they deliberately imported them from abroad.

This is the origin of the Cherokee, but, compared with Santana, which is smooth and smooth, the Cherokee is full of twists and turns.

At first, it was planned to jointly develop, but later it was changed to direct import. Starting from the initial assembly of incoming parts, that is, ckd, the localization rate was gradually increased, and the two parties established the first joint venture company.

In 85, the installation of the production line was completed, and it seemed that it was going to be a big job. However, at that time, the country’s foreign exchange was in a hurry, so it became a problem to spend precious foreign exchange to buy Cherokee parts. Therefore, the seven-month In time, the production line was deserted!

The price of the Cherokee assembled from incoming parts is relatively expensive, and the sales volume is ridiculously poor. In the first year, the Cherokee series only sold 262 units, but the bj212, with a dead tree in spring, sold more than 2 units.

In 86, the national policy was adjusted again, and the road for importing spare parts was blocked again. Therefore, Cherokee stopped production again. Later, the joint venture company A was acquired, and it was in chaos. Until 88, Capital Automobile Factory After investing hundreds of millions of yuan to transform the production line, the production gradually became normal after they were able to produce various parts. However, after several years of tossing, they lost a lot of money and became a joke in the auto industry.

When Santana was first introduced, the factory leaders were very cautious, for fear of going the way of the Cherokee.

Now, Qin Shaoyou said the same as the Cherokee, so of course everyone should treat it with caution.

"Of course." Qin Shaoyou said firmly, "We plan to take the high-end route. The price of this car is more expensive than Santana!"
